You will train a network to generate novel jazz solos in a style representative of a body of performed work. 😎🎷
To get started, you'll train your algorithm on a corpus of Jazz music. Run the cell below to listen to a snippet of the audio from the training set:
IPython.display.Audio('./data/30s_seq.wav')The preprocessing of the musical data has been taken care of already, which for this notebook means it's been rendered in terms of musical "values." #### What are musical "values"? (optional)You can informally think of each "value" as a note, which comprises a pitch and duration. For example, if you press down a specific piano key for 0.5 seconds, then you have just played a note. In music theory, a "value" is actually more complicated than this -- specifically, it also captures the information needed to play multiple notes at the same time. For example, when playing a music piece, you might press down two piano keys at the same time (playing multiple notes at the same time generates what's called a "chord"). But you don't need to worry about the details of music theory for this assignment. #### Music as a sequence of values* For the purposes of this assignment, all you need to know is that you'll obtain a dataset of values, and will use an RNN model to generate sequences of values. * Your music generation system will use 90 unique values. Run the following code to load the raw music data and preprocess it into values. This might take a few minutes!The preprocessing of the musical data has been taken care of already, which for this notebook means it's been rendered in terms of musical "values."

This format makes it more convenient to feed into the LSTM later. - Similar to the dinosaur assignment, you're using the previous values to predict the next value. - So your sequence model will try to predict $y^{\langle t \rangle}$ given $x^{\langle 1\rangle}, \ldots, x^{\langle t \rangle}$. - `n_values`: The number of unique values in this dataset. This should be 90. - `indices_values`: python dictionary mapping integers 0 through 89 to musical values.- `chords`: Chords used in the input midiYou have just loaded the following:

It's similar to the Dinosaurus model, except that you'll implement it in Keras.
## Overview of Section 2 and 3In Section 2, you're going to train a model that predicts the next note in a style similar to the jazz music it's trained on. The training is contained in the weights and biases of the model. Then, in Section 3, you're going to use those weights and biases in a new model that predicts a series of notes, and using the previous note to predict the next note. * The weights and biases are transferred to the new model using the global shared layers (`LSTM_cell`, `densor`, `reshaper`) described belowIn Section 2, you're going to train a model that predicts the next note in a style similar to the jazz music it's trained on. The training is contained in the weights and biases of the model.
Then, in Section 3, you're going to use those weights and biases in a new model that predicts a series of notes, and using the previous note to predict the next note.
LSTM_cell, densor, reshaper) described below<a name='2'></a>## 2 - Building the ModelNow, you'll build and train a model that will learn musical patterns. * The model takes input X of shape $(m, T_x, 90)$ and labels Y of shape $(T_y, m, 90)$. * You'll use an LSTM with hidden states that have $n_{a} = 64$ dimensions.Now, you'll build and train a model that will learn musical patterns.
# number of dimensions for the hidden state of each LSTM cell.n_a = 64 #### Sequence generation uses a for-loop* If you're building an RNN where, at test time, the entire input sequence $x^{\langle 1 \rangle}, x^{\langle 2 \rangle}, \ldots, x^{\langle T_x \rangle}$ is given in advance, then Keras has simple built-in functions to build the model. * However, for **sequence generation, at test time you won't know all the values of $x^{\langle t\rangle}$ in advance**.* Instead, you'll generate them one at a time using $x^{\langle t\rangle} = y^{\langle t-1 \rangle}$. * The input at time "t" is the prediction at the previous time step "t-1".* So you'll need to implement your own for-loop to iterate over the time steps. #### Shareable weights* The function `djmodel()` will call the LSTM layer $T_x$ times using a for-loop.* It is important that all $T_x$ copies have the same weights. - The $T_x$ steps should have shared weights that aren't re-initialized.* Referencing a globally defined shared layer will utilize the same layer-object instance at each time step.* The key steps for implementing layers with shareable weights in Keras are: 1. Define the layer objects (you'll use global variables for this).2. Call these objects when propagating the input.#### 3 types of layers* The layer objects you need for global variables have been defined. * Just run the next cell to create them! * Please read the Keras documentation and understand these layers: - [Reshape()](https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/keras/layers/Reshape): Reshapes an output to a certain shape. - [LSTM()](https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/keras/layers/LSTM): Long Short-Term Memory layer - [Dense()](https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/keras/layers/Dense): A regular fully-connected neural network layer.djmodel() will call the LSTM layer times using a for-loop.n_values = 90 # number of music valuesreshaper = Reshape((1, n_values)) # Used in Step 2.B of djmodel(), belowLSTM_cell = LSTM(n_a, return_state = True) # Used in Step 2.Cdensor = Dense(n_values, activation='softmax') # Used in Step 2.D* `reshaper`, `LSTM_cell` and `densor` are globally defined layer objects that you'll use to implement `djmodel()`. * In order to propagate a Keras tensor object X through one of these layers, use `layer_object()`. - For one input, use `layer_object(X)` - For more than one input, put the inputs in a list: `layer_object([X1,X2])`reshaper, LSTM_cell and densor are globally defined layer objects that you'll use to implement djmodel(). layer_object().layer_object(X)layer_object([X1,X2])<a name='ex-1'></a>### Exercise 1 - djmodelImplement `djmodel()`.#### Inputs (given)* The `Input()` layer is used for defining the input `X` as well as the initial hidden state 'a0' and cell state `c0`.* The `shape` parameter takes a tuple that does not include the batch dimension (`m`). - For example, ```Python X = Input(shape=(Tx, n_values)) # X has 3 dimensions and not 2: (m, Tx, n_values) ``` **Step 1: Outputs*** Create an empty list "outputs" to save the outputs of the LSTM Cell at every time step.Implement djmodel().
Input() layer is used for defining the input X as well as the initial hidden state 'a0' and cell state c0.shape parameter takes a tuple that does not include the batch dimension (m).X = Input(shape=(Tx, n_values)) # X has 3 dimensions and not 2: (m, Tx, n_values)Step 1: Outputs
#### Step 2: Loop through time steps* Loop for $t \in 1, \ldots, T_x$:#### 2A. Select the 't' time-step vector from `X`.* X has the shape (m, Tx, n_values).* The shape of the 't' selection should be (n_values,). * Recall that if you were implementing in numpy instead of Keras, you would extract a slice from a 3D numpy array like this:```Pythonvar1 = array1[:,1,:]``` #### 2B. Reshape `x` to be (1, n_values).* Use the `reshaper()` layer. This is a function that takes the previous layer as its input argument.#### 2C. Run `x` through one step of `LSTM_cell`.* Initialize the `LSTM_cell` with the previous step's hidden state $a$ and cell state $c$. * Use the following formatting:```pythonnext_hidden_state, _, next_cell_state = LSTM_cell(inputs=input_x, initial_state=[previous_hidden_state, previous_cell_state])``` * Choose appropriate variables for inputs, hidden state and cell state.#### 2D. Dense layer* Propagate the LSTM's hidden state through a dense+softmax layer using `densor`. #### 2E. Append output* Append the output to the list of "outputs".X.¶var1 = array1[:,1,:]x to be (1, n_values).¶reshaper() layer.

There are two ways to instantiate the `Model` object. One is by subclassing, which you won't use here. Instead, you'll use the highly flexible Functional API, which you may remember from an earlier assignment in this course! With the Functional API, you'll start from your Input, then specify the model's forward pass with chained layer calls, and finally create the model from inputs and outputs.* Specify the inputs and output like so:```Pythonmodel = Model(inputs=[input_x, initial_hidden_state, initial_cell_state], outputs=the_outputs)``` * Then, choose the appropriate variables for the input tensor, hidden state, cell state, and output.* See the documentation for [Model](https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/keras/Model)Use the Keras Model object to create a model.

<a name='3-2'></a>### 3.2 - Generate Music Finally! You're ready to generate music. Your RNN generates a sequence of values. The following code generates music by first calling your `predict_and_sample()` function. These values are then post-processed into musical chords (meaning that multiple values or notes can be played at the same time). Most computational music algorithms use some post-processing because it's difficult to generate music that sounds good without it. The post-processing does things like clean up the generated audio by making sure the same sound is not repeated too many times, or that two successive notes are not too far from each other in pitch, and so on. One could argue that a lot of these post-processing steps are hacks; also, a lot of the music generation literature has also focused on hand-crafting post-processors, and a lot of the output quality depends on the quality of the post-processing and not just the quality of the model. But this post-processing does make a huge difference, so you should use it in your implementation as well. Let's make some music! Finally! You're ready to generate music.

<font color='blue'><b> What you should remember:</b> - A sequence model can be used to generate musical values, which are then post-processed into midi music. - You can use a fairly similar model for tasks ranging from generating dinosaur names to generating original music, with the only major difference being the input fed to the model. - In Keras, sequence generation involves defining layers with shared weights, which are then repeated for the different time steps $1, \ldots, T_x$.
